Manual Installation

Let's explore the manual installation process as we set up a node with Cosmovisor!

Install Dependencies

Update system package and install build tools
sudo apt -q update
sudo apt -qy install curl git jq lz4 build-essential fail2ban ufw
sudo apt -qy upgrade

Secure Setup

πŸ“’

This step is optional, and you can choose to skip ahead to configure moniker.

Setup ssh for bitcanna user replace YOUR_PUBLIC_SSH_KEY with your own!
sudo adduser bitcanna --disabled-password -q
sudo usermod -aG sudo bitcanna
sudo -u bitcanna bash -c 'mkdir -p ~/.ssh && echo "YOUR_PUBLIC_SSH_KEY" >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys && chmod 700 ~/.ssh && chmod 600 ~/.ssh/authorized_keys'

Configure Moniker

Replace <your-moniker-name> with your own validator name
MONIKER="<your-moniker-name>"

Install Go

install go version 1.20.7
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/go
curl -Ls https://go.dev/dl/go1.20.7.linux-amd64.tar.gz | sudo tar -xzf - -C /usr/local
eval $(echo 'export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin' | sudo tee /etc/profile.d/golang.sh)
eval $(echo 'export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/go/bin' | tee -a $HOME/.profile)

Build Binaries

Cloning project repository & Compile binaries
cd $HOME
rm -rf bcna
git clone https://github.com/BitCannaGlobal/bcna.git
cd bcna
git checkout v3.0.2-rc1
make build

Latest commit : 071838392ec3eb62b66860df5c74cedb32ec7475

Prepare binaries for cosmovisor
mkdir -p $HOME/.bcna/cosmovisor/genesis/bin
mv build/bcnad $HOME/.bcna/cosmovisor/genesis/bin/
rm -rf build
Create symlinks
sudo ln -s $HOME/.bcna/cosmovisor/genesis $HOME/.bcna/cosmovisor/current -f
sudo ln -s $HOME/.bcna/cosmovisor/current/bin/bcnad /usr/local/bin/bcnad -f

Cosmovisor Setup

Install cosmovisor
go install cosmossdk.io/tools/cosmovisor/cmd/cosmovisor@v1.5.0

Create Service

Create a systemd service
sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/bitcanna.service > /dev/null << EOF
[Unit]
Description=bitcanna node service
After=network-online.target
 
[Service]
User=$USER

EOF

Enable Service

Enable bitcanna systemd service
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable bitcanna

Initialize Node

Setting node configuration
bcnad config chain-id bitcanna-dev-1
bcnad config keyring-backend test
bcnad config node tcp://localhost:22957
Initialize node
bcnad init $MONIKER --chain-id bitcanna-dev-1
